Three people — one woman and two children — were killed after the Mercedes van they were in crashed on Interstate 95 in Daytona Beach on Friday, Florida Highway Patrol spokeswoman Kim Montes said.

The single-vehicle crash happened at about 3:20 p.m. on southbound I-95 near the LPGA Boulevard exit.

Witnesses told troopers that Michelly Zulfiqar, 38, drove the Mercedes off the roadway without hitting the brakes and crashed into a wall, Montes said.

Zulfiqar died at the scene along with her 10-year-old son Hami Zulfiqar. Two other children were transported to Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach. Zulfiqar's 3-year-old daughter Dani Zulfiqar died in the hospital.

The only survivor, 4-year-old Sami Zulfiqar, is now at Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children in critical condition.
